Christ ascending and reigning

Hymnal: Doctor Watts's imitation of the Psalms of David, to which is added a collection of hymns; the whole applied to the state of the Christian Church in general (3rd ed.) #82 (1786) Topics: Ascension of Christ; Ascension of Christ First Line: Oh for a shout of sacred joy Lyrics: 1 Oh for a shout of sacred joy To God the sovereign King! Let every land their tongues employ, And hymns of triumph sing. 2 Jesus our God ascends on high; His heavenly guards around Attend him rising thro' the sky, With trumpet's joyful sound. 3 While angels shout and praise their King, Let mortals learn their strains; Let all the earth his honours sing; O’er all the earth he reigns. 4 Rehearse his praise with awe profound, Let knowledge guide the song; Nor mock him with a solemn sound Upon a thoughtless tongue. 5 In Israel stood his antient throne, He lov'd that chosen race; But now he calls the world his own, And heathens taste his grace. 6 The Gentile nations are the Lord’s, There Abraham’s God is known; While powers and princes, shields and swords Submit before his throne.

All hail, Redeemer, hail! for thou hast died for me; thy praise shall never, never fail throughout eternity. Scripture: John 5:12-13 Languages: English Tune Title: DIADEMATA

Ye everlasting doors, give way!" 3 Loose all your bars of massy light, And wide unfold the ethereal scene; He claims these mansions as His right: Receive the King of glory in. 4 "Who is this King of glory, who?"

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #96 (1908) Topics: The Church Year Ascension; Ascension Day Lyrics: 1 We thank Thee, Jesus! dearest Friend, That Thou didst into heav'n ascend; O blessed Savior! bid us live, And strength to soul and body give. 2 Now His disciples all rejoice, And sing His praise with cheerful voice: Come, let us grateful off'rings bring, Our Brother is our God and King. 3 Ascended to His throne on high, He yet to us is always nigh; True God and man He ever reigns, And infinite in power remains. 4 Above the heav'ns in glory raised, By angel hosts forever praised, All creatures His dominion own, He holds an everlasting throne. 5 He rules and reigns at God's right hand, And has all power at His command, All things are subject to His rod-- The Son of man and Son of God. 6 The world, and sin, and Satan fell He overthrew, with death and hell; Dispute who will His mighty reign, He still the Victor must remain. 7 The man who trusts in Him is blest, And finds in Him eternal rest; This world's allurements we despise, And fix on Christ alone our eyes. 8 He richest consolation gives, Who once was dead but ever lives; He captive led captivity, From bitter death to set us free. 9 With deepest joy our voice we raise, And sing our grateful song of praise; Our Brother, our own flesh and bone, Is God and King, our joy alone. 10 Through Him we heirs of heaven are made; O Brother, Christ! extend Thine aid, That we may ever trust in Thee, And live by faith eternally. 11 Amen, amen, O Lord! we cry; Do Thou, who art exalted high, In Thy pure faith preserve our hearts, And shield us from all Satan's darts. 12 Come, blessed Lord! to judgment come, And take us to our glorious home, That all our woes on earth may cease, And we may dwell in heavenly peace. 13 A glad Amen shall close our song, Our souls for rest in glory long, Where we with angel-hosts again Shall sing in nobler strains Amen!

Jesus reigns adored by angels; Man with God is on the throne; Mighty Lord, in Thine ascension We by faith behold our own. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: REX GLORIAE
